Whitney Smith

So sweet! These creations are by Whitney Smith. Sometimes my etsy radar functions in a rather delayed manner, and I am suprised when amazing work like this pops up seemingly from nowhere. I can't believe I have only discovered these now, Whitney has even been a featured seller on Etsy before! So this is me catching up .. Wowww!! Look at those birds! Adding to my 'one day when my paintings are walking out the door and I have so much cash I just have to spend it' list. :)

The Secret Nest

I actually stumbled across these gorgeous animals by The Secret Nest while searching with the word 'secret' on Etsy today! Aren't they cute?!

Amy Giacomelli

There is one very talented artist I have bean meaning to share with you for a long time.. Amy Giacomelli (who paints under the brush name of Natalia Skye) is the very first artist that caught my attention on etsy, and I am still continually inspired by her work - I can be found checking in at any one of her four etsy shops daily! Make sure you have a look at each of her shops, because they each have a slightly different feel/style.

Amber Alexander

I have been side tracked once again tonight - I love looking at artworks that just make you smile! You may have seen some of these before but I just couldn't resist posting them! These prints are by Amber Alexander, there are so many more in her shop!

Psssst! Amber has a blog as well!

ViolaStudios

Who would have though that preloved wool sweaters could be turned into creations so adorable? I'm so impressed! These creations are from ViolaStudios, and are made with recycled and repurposed materials. I had a hard time choosing just a few to blog - so make sure you visit the shop to see all the other cute creatures!

Cathy Nichols

There are so many artists I admire, and would love to share with you. Just when I think I am getting through them, I discover another handful of talent! I don't think I will ever run out of 'hearts' to share! These paintings are by Cathy Nichols - I have been following her work for quite a while now, and always love checking back in her Etsy shop for new work. Psssst.. Cathy has a blog as well!

Misako Mimoko

These little dolls are by Eva from Misako Mimoko. I have been a fan of Misako Mimoko for a while now, and I regularly visit Eva's wonderful blog. Her shop has recently been updated - sadly the first two dolls pictured here are already sold (I just love them), but there are many more to choose from! Why not take a peek?!
